Finsbury Adept 12/14 Modular Head – Medical Device Alert

Article byKevin Timms

The UK medical
device manufacturer has issued a formal Medical Device Alert in respect of the
Finsbury Adept 12/14 Modular Head, a component used in the Finsbury Adept Total
Hip Replacement. This is a metal on metal hip implant.

Whilst the
Medical Device Alert has not specifically said this is a formal recall of the
Finsbury Adept metal Modular Head, it reaffirms the Urgent Field Safety Notice
issued by Finsbury Orthopaedics on 15 January 2013
that the Finsbury Adept metal Modular Head should not be implanted and all
affected devices should be returned to DePuy International Limited.

Whilst a
different manufacturer, DePuy International Limited purchased Finsbury
Orthopaedics Limited in 2009. DePuy is the manufacturer of the recalled ASR metal on metal hip
implant, in which Garden House Solicitors are already bringing claims.

Garden House
Solicitors are instructed by a growing number of patients who have been injured
as a result of the Finsbury Adept metal Modular Head when used as a total hip
replacement and are forming a group action against the manufacturer.

If you or
someone you know have suffered adverse symptoms as a result of these implants, whether
you have had revision surgery or not, please contact Kevin Timms for free
advice on whether you could bring a claim against Finsbury Orthopaedics Limited
and join a group of claimants suffering from similar problems.

Kevin is also
instructed by individuals with the Finsbury Adept resurfacing metal on metal
hip implant and non approved Finsbury Adept Total Hip Replacements.

Hello, I appreciate your writing. Medicare has long been fighting specialists who charge the legislature for home visits they never made, and a report discharged by the Health and Human Services Inspector General said that in spite of the new regulations, the practice is proceeding.thanks~ Jessica T.
